Whole Home Battery Backup

Ensure your home never skips a beat during severe storms or PG&E Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS). At Big Trees Electric, we install state-of-the-art house battery systems that seamlessly keep your power on when you need it the most.

Why Choose Batteries Over a Generator?

While traditional standby generators are common in the mountains, whole-home battery backups provide several critical advantages during prolonged PG&E power shutoffs:

• ●
  Instantaneous Power: Unlike generators that have a 10-20 second start-up delay, batteries provide an instant transition. Your Wi-Fi stays connected, computers won't shut off, and medical equipment operates without interruption.
• ●
  Silent Operation: Enjoy the quiet of the forest without the loud, constant drone of a combustion engine.
• ●
  No Fuel Hurdles: Say goodbye to storing, transporting, and refilling gas or propane tanks, a major advantage when roads are blocked during winter storms. Paired with solar, your batteries can recharge themselves indefinitely.
• ●
  Zero Maintenance: No oil changes, no fuel stabilization, and no mechanical engine tune-ups required.
